I've been seriously introverted all my life. So much, in fact, I had to leave school and self teach.
I love it as a slightly crippling yet awesome feature, even though I've been told it's a flaw (I don't agree).
There are a few things that help me out in the lows:
- I have 2 close friends. To destroy these friendships, planet earth needs to be blown up. But I don't go out very often with them.
To maintain this, we play almost daily for about an hour, dota2 or whatever else floats our boat. And then, I just log off skype. I'd play even if they weren't there. FOSS collaboration works just as well.
- Having a not too demanding girlfiend helps. Look for one so smart it cripples her.
